When the Toronto International Film Festival announced its high-profile premieres on Tuesday, the lineup was filled with the expected prestige - an adaptation of a Pulitzer Prize-winning work starring Meryl Streep and Julia Roberts ("August: Osage County"), a 19th century race drama from the British artist and director Steve McQueen ("12 Years a Slave"). But the list also included a more surprising crop of films. Among the world and North American premieres set for the festival when it begins Sept.

Matthew Berry's book sure makes a lousy first impression. The ESPN fantasy guru introduces us to a league where, each year, the last-place finisher is forced to get a humiliating tattoo.

Berry's book comes at an opportune time, in the first stirrings of another fantasy season, as emails begin to shoot back and forth about upcoming drafts.

You may have missed it for the racket produced by the majority of movies currently going boom-boom - or, in the case of "The Lone Ranger," bust-bust - at the multiplex. But with the arrival of Sundance Film Festival sensation "Fruitvale Station" in theaters, the opening bell for Oscar season has sounded, providing welcome news for moviegoers immune to the charms of unnecessary reboots and bloated tent-pole movies. And though we're still a long way from sending the tux to the dry cleaners to see what they can do about the stain left from Wolfgang Puck's pork belly dumplings, it's never too early to begin crafting an Oscar campaign.

If nothing else, AMC's "Mad Men" has been the deliberate and artful chronicle of the psychological undressing of the secretive Don Draper. In its current season, the drama laid the character even more bare when he was caught with another woman - and with his pants down - by his 14-year-old daughter. The excruciating moment, a culmination of self-imposed humiliations in a season awash in shame for the Emmy Award-winning show's central character, prompted a fresh round of howling at the depraved depths of its charismatic antihero.

"The show is titled 'Mad Men,' but without these women, the guys would be just a bunch of desperate masturbators in great suits. " So said Holly Hunter, introducing the lead actresses of the acclaimed AMC drama last week at the nonprofit Women in Film awards. And, really, it's hard to argue. While the show's men, most notably, the self-loathing Don Draper, keep repeating sins from the past, the women have evolved and adapted through the show's six seasons. Remember the pilot episode in which Joan takes Peggy on a tour of the office and advises her to "take a paper bag, cut eye holes out of it, put it over your head, get undressed then look at yourself in the mirror"?
